Way Beyond Expectations
I stumbled upon this little restaurant while heading to the supermarket and couldn’t resist checking it out. The menu intrigued me, a mix of Korean dishes and a surprising addition of Bún (noodles, not soup but dry noodles mixed with protein and vegetables) that seemed more inspired by Thai or Vietnamese cuisine. Adding to my curiosity, the staff weren’t Asian, which made me wonder how they’d approach these flavors.
As a Vietnamese person, I have to say the dish wasn’t 100% authentic, especially the fish sauce, which wasn’t quite traditional. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-balanced the flavors were. The sauce harmonized beautifully with the noodles and toppings, which included a generous variety of vegetables. The beef was stir-fried to perfection, with an aromatic finish that elevated the dish.
I once tried a similar dish at one of the most famous Vietnamese restaurants in Frankfurt, but I didn’t enjoy it. This one, though, with its adjusted sauce and abundance of veggies, was a delight! The creativity and balance really won me over.
I’ll definitely visit again.

Read moreWhat a hidden gem! The atmosphere here deserves a solid 10 out of 5 — easily the calmest, most beautifully designed place I’ve ever dined in. It genuinely felt like stepping into a cozy spot in Korea. Whoever designed the interior absolutely nailed it!
While I’m not usually a huge fan of Asian cuisine, the food here was genuinely delicious. We ordered:
Junor Chickk (Korean Fried Chicken) – crispy, juicy, and absolutely addictive
Tteokbokki – originally served with fish cake, but they were happy to leave it out for us
Crispy Mandu (4 pieces of gyoza)
Vegan Bibimbap – served sizzling hot with a flavorful side sauce
Everything was fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor. That fried chicken especially was a highlight — just wow!
There was also a cute little open refrigerator with Korean whiskey and other drinks, though we didn’t try any this time.
The service was lovely, too — the lady serving us was kind and welcoming.
No complaints at all. I’d definitely recommend going at least once, and I’m already looking forward...
Read moreI passed by this restaurant few times and was curious about it. I love Korean cuisine overall, and have been to other Korean restaurants in Hamburg before.
Korean miso suppe was nice, but as other reviewer said it has “cucumber” vibe. Soft mandu was over cooked and over steamed, making it too mushy, and the worst it was served cold! It was not tasty either, it felt like I was eating soft cold mushy dough :((( Not enough spices, soya sauce felt like a brown water… Also long waiting even though there are not so many people, for some reason delivery guys have priority, it would be nice if there are two workers on reception or at least separate windows. Overall, it doesn’t worth the price 😣 Though the interior design is beautiful and...
